Well for the next week… at least… I won't be on as much, I will still try to get on once a day but no promises. I'm doing sound for a play so thats sucking up all of my time… I was at school for 13 hours yesterday… I also just picked up all the parts for my new computer. FTW. So It will take some of my time to build it and get it all up and running as fast as possible.

So try to be mature while I'm gone?

Cheers,
Hobbit

I wonder who that's aimed at >_>

If you need any help with building your new computer/get stuck with anything (omg which way round does the floppy disk cable go? xD) then just hop on msn, I'll give you all the help you need.

Good luck with the play, good luck with the new computer.

You should put linux on your new computer :)

Not as much crap… :P and some cool themes :P

And its free.. Cough… with the Windows Genuine Check crack ;)

MOB supports upto 16Gbs RAM FTW

I only got 2 for now :p

Edit: I'll post CPU & GPU Benchmarks when I get the Bloody SATA power connectors

Edit2:

Windows doesn't though.

I know, XP only supports 4Gbs

Edit3: DANGIT WHY ARE ALL THE COMPUTER PLACES THAT CARRY SATA POWER CONNECTORS CLOSED ON SUNDAYS!!!!

Windows doesn't though.

Get Ubuntu ^_^.

Ubuntu just released a new version, 8.04 on the 24th. They release a new version every 6 monhts

Nope. Windows is better.

I heard 8.04 was gonna be their last distro? But owell I'm burning a LiveCD or Knoppix for now till i get the SATA Power connectors.. But in the end i'll probably go with Ubuntu + beryl and kiba dock :p

But Mandriva looks cool too….

For now Modded XP Pro is it…

wow hobbit you are the most inactive guy I know!

Look who's talking :p.

@Hobbit, I hadn't heard that but I don't know. Arch Linux is another good distro

From: Dark_Sniper

Yay, are you staying??



I made a spare system partition to install linux on when i decide which one..

From: IP-Drowner
Nope. Windows is better.

*Sigh* Blind…There is nothing good with Windows you know…Nothing

Well on topic, hope you have fun Hobbit, my school is so small we don't even have like any plays unless they suck too much to have any good sound/lighting…Man I hate the country.

P.S. Ubuntu is the sh!t, use that!!!
